Here's the one they make for the f-body's. $600 for the headers AND y pipe all stainless. 3" piping with a merge collector! I probably will have regretted getting the Pacesetters if these people release their truck version any time soon. I was told they are working on the truck version as we speak.

LPP. I think they are a startup company.

I wouldn't be surprised if they are using the same Chinese manufacturers as OBX. But after seeing the OBX headers, I wouldn't hesitate to buy a Chinese header. The welds on the OBX are nicer than the $1200 dynas.

I wish I still had my Kooks 1 7/8-2" headers 3 1/2" collector, those were quite possibly the best welds I've ever seen... I think those would have been nice on the truck as well... oh well...

If they are a decent header/y-pipe combo, I'll pick a set up.
